Speaker 1: From the King of Sports Books becomes the Key Sports
Speaker 1: podcast Unleashed, presented by MGM. Here's your host, Jerry Ferrara
Speaker 1: and Olivia Arlen Decker. I've won on Hell Mary's, I've
Speaker 1: lost on Hell Mary's, I've won in less second game.
Speaker 1: It's just you you. At this point in my life,
Speaker 1: I've experienced all of it, and uh so I'm never
Speaker 1: surprised what the league has the offer. But let those
Speaker 1: roller that roll across the never changes. And Jets coach
Speaker 1: Robert Sala I think said it best there. He has
Speaker 1: a lot to be happy about. This week. The Green
Speaker 1: Men down under two minutes to go in Cleveland, they
Speaker 1: get the dub two other teams overcame a twenty point
Speaker 1: halftime deficit. It was wild. A lot of bad beats
Speaker 1: this week, I'm sure, Jerry, I think you're one of them.
Speaker 1: What was the parlay that you lost? Well, I broke
Speaker 1: one of my first rules, which was never bet with
Speaker 1: or against the New York team in general. Broke that
Speaker 1: right out of the gate. The side rule to that
Speaker 1: is also avoid putting the Browns in anything. So I
Speaker 1: went like right into the curse. I tried to reverse
Speaker 1: the curse. So I had the Giants, which was lovely.
Speaker 1: I had the Jags, which I mean that was a
Speaker 1: joke win for me. And then the worst part of
Speaker 1: this bad beat is I sweat it out the entire
Speaker 1: Dolphins Ravens game. I was on the Dolphins look dead
Speaker 1: at halftime, and we all know what happened. So as
Speaker 1: I'm celebrating this comeback, which I'm like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna hit because the fourth leg of that parlay
Speaker 1: was the Browns and they're up thirteen. There's no way
Speaker 1: that's gonna go wrong. So if the Dolphins squeaked this out,
Speaker 1: I got it. And just as the Dolphins are squeaking
Speaker 1: it out, the Jets and Robert Sala and all those receipts,
Speaker 1: you know what, not keep the receipts. I'm gonna send
Speaker 1: you a bill for what you guys just did to
Speaker 1: me on that part. Like, I mean, I don't like
Speaker 1: any leading the show with any Jets anything, but we
Speaker 1: did it. It was a great win for them, busted.
Speaker 1: Like my whole part that I would have went like
Speaker 1: seven for seven if not for that game, what would
Speaker 1: the payout of bend? You know? Of course, you know,
Speaker 1: I think it was fifteen the one. I think I
Speaker 1: was at the one, so yeah, that would have it
Speaker 1: would have definitely been a good week. Two hits, So yeah,
Speaker 1: I got the receipts and you're getting a bill. I
Speaker 1: always wonder when it comes to sports betting, if this
Speaker 1: entices people to bet more the next week, you know,
Speaker 1: if it or if it makes you feel so burned
Speaker 1: that the better team doesn't always win, or anything can happen,
Speaker 1: or I mean, what do you think. Do you think
Speaker 1: more people are gonna be aggressive this week? I think
Speaker 1: for me, you know, we're still learning so much. The
Speaker 1: first few weeks. Like something I like a lot for
Speaker 1: the first few weeks. I like teasers, and I had
Speaker 1: a really nice teaser. I took all and I think
Speaker 1: I we talked about it with Peter took all the
Speaker 1: ten points favorites pretty much last week, not all. I
Speaker 1: think it was Packers uh Rams and there was another
Speaker 1: one in and the Broncos knocked him all the way
Speaker 1: down to basically pick him. Yeah, I feel like those
Speaker 1: hang on the most early. But yeah, I think I
Speaker 1: don't know if it could be aggressive going into week
Speaker 1: three because we're still getting info. But yeah, it was
Speaker 1: a tale of two halves. For me, with those beats,
Speaker 1: like on one half that Jets beat or Brown's beat,
Speaker 1: I should say hurts really bad. But then watching that
Speaker 1: Dolphins game, it's official for me, Tyreek Kill is the
Speaker 1: scariest player to bet against, and I was happy I
Speaker 1: was with him on that game. Yeah, for sure, you
Speaker 1: learned your lesson. I don't know the Dolphins moving forward?
Speaker 1: What do you want to do? Wow? Are you fading
Speaker 1: after that? When you're gonna fade them? Olivia? You know,
Speaker 1: I've heard the most contradictory remarks onto this week and this.
Speaker 1: We could talk forever about this, But there are so
Speaker 1: many people who were like, good for you, it was
Speaker 1: a one off. There are a lot of people who
Speaker 1: were like, no, I mean, he's a he's a Saban
Speaker 1: coached guy. He was drafted where he was for a reason.
Speaker 1: He's had a real tough go of it in in Miami,
Speaker 1: of course, he has with coaches and weapons and injuries,
Speaker 1: of course, But do you think this is a one
Speaker 1: one take wonder? Almost? Do you think he just had
Speaker 1: a bizarre game. He was certainly the m v P
Speaker 1: of the week. Yeah, I don't think we're gonna see
Speaker 1: him weekend. Week out throw for five or six touchdowns.
Speaker 1: That's not realistic. But you know a lot of people
Speaker 1: are still kind of doing even what you sort of
Speaker 1: did a little bit there, not buying it. And I
Speaker 1: get it, it's only two weeks. We don't have to
Speaker 1: buy it. I get it. But look at the Week
Speaker 1: one victory. That's a good Pat's defense with now not
Speaker 1: so good Pat's offense. And they played that style of
Speaker 1: that game in a much different way than they were
Speaker 1: forced to play against the Ravens. So to me, they're
Speaker 1: showing adaptability. And you love storylines, you know you love storylines.
Speaker 1: I think in my mind I could close my eyes
Speaker 1: and see the two uh storyline just of him proving
Speaker 1: a lot of people wrong. He was hurt early on
Speaker 1: in his career, and these weapons that he has now
Speaker 1: I would be a little concerned about the Dolphins defense.
Speaker 1: But I'm in. I'm not fading. I'm I'm rolling with
Speaker 1: the Dolphins, all right. And in addition to being hurt
Speaker 1: and coaching changes and drama in the papers all that.
Speaker 1: Don't forget what twa when he was healthy, it was
Speaker 1: almost like every third game they'd start Ryan Fitzpatrick. You
Speaker 1: know what I mean? So he never had consistency even
Speaker 1: when he was healthy, so the whole thing was kind
Speaker 1: of a mess. Totally excited for the guy, very excited
Speaker 1: to see what's going to happen there. But you know,
Speaker 1: when it comes to betting, I know a lot of
Speaker 1: people lost a lot of money this week. This was
Speaker 1: a pretty good week for the books. It's a long
Speaker 1: season and you have a lot of time to come
Speaker 1: out on top. So we've actually brought in helped our
Speaker 1: guest this week. We've got the EP of gaming content
Speaker 1: at Bally Sports. His name's Brad Evans. He's the host
Speaker 1: of Live on the Line. Always very insightful when it
Speaker 1: comes to sports betting. So we got that, and then
Speaker 1: at the end, as always, will check in with our
Speaker 1: own Peter Andrew, who was looking to bounce back in
Speaker 1: his one hundred dollar challenge. He had some big winners
Speaker 1: last week. You know, he he did pretty good, so
Speaker 1: we'll get his NFL Week three picks. Yeah, and he
Speaker 1: also he did what he needed to do. He he
Speaker 1: jinks the Seahawks and it's terrible because you never want
Speaker 1: to see it come in the form of an injury
Speaker 1: with Trey and we'll talk about that I'm sure, but yeah,
Speaker 1: he came. He knew what he was doing last week
Speaker 1: taking the Seahawks against his Niners. He knew what he
Speaker 1: was doing. I know, I know he's so shady that
Speaker 1: Peter Andrew shady, shady. So I'm curious now. I know
Speaker 1: you're Giants fans, We've got to give this some some airtime.
Speaker 1: They looked great. I don't know what's more surprising that
Speaker 1: there two and oh or that the Bengals are oh
Speaker 1: and two. I mean, there's there's a lot of O
Speaker 1: and two teams, and there are a lot of winless teams,
Speaker 1: obviously with the tie to with the Texans and the
Speaker 1: colt so a lot of winless teams. But what's the
Speaker 1: biggest surprise do you think so far? Are you surprised
Speaker 1: by your own team? I am surprised by my own team,
Speaker 1: and I do think it is the biggest surprise. And
Speaker 1: maybe this is a little of a Homer point of view,
Speaker 1: but two things that the Giants have done this year
Speaker 1: that they have not done in years is win a
Speaker 1: game on the road like Week one, where usually that's
Speaker 1: an exact perfect kind of game the Giants lose, and
Speaker 1: then more importantly, Week two in another tough, fun game.
Speaker 1: They win a home game, another thing the Giants don't do.
Speaker 1: The Giants haven't had a home field advantage that I
Speaker 1: don't know how since stray Hand was on team. So
Speaker 1: it is very surprising you're starting to feel like, I mean,
Speaker 1: they're their favorite in that game against the Cowboys. I
Speaker 1: know there's no Dak Prescott. I get it, but starting
Speaker 1: to see the Giants as favorites I don't. I don't
Speaker 1: like that makes me very uncomfortable. So I'm very surprised
Speaker 1: by this Giants team. I know you said earlier that
Speaker 1: when they come to London in my backyard here to
Speaker 1: play my Packers, that you didn't think it'd be very
Speaker 1: dramatic for us unless they were I think he said
Speaker 1: three and one four? Oh, how likely is that going
Speaker 1: to be? Now? Like, what are you thinking of the
Speaker 1: Giants next couple of games? Yeah, you know, it's been
Speaker 1: a while too since we've beaten Dallas. Everyone remembers how
Speaker 1: Eli stormed into Jerry World during its open and I
Speaker 1: think he won his first two games in Jerry World
Speaker 1: something like that, even like signed the locker. But it's
Speaker 1: been rough going. The Cowboys have definitely had the Giants number. Look,
Speaker 1: we're catching the Cowboys at a good time without Dak. Also,
Speaker 1: I love not having to play one of our road
Speaker 1: games at Lambeau. I love it being in London. Giants
Speaker 1: are a good team in London, so I'm not saying
Speaker 1: that's aging to equal wins, but we're definitely getting breaks
Speaker 1: so far. And by the way, this has all been
Speaker 1: done without our two best pass rushers. We've had a
Speaker 1: pretty good pass rush without Tip and without Oilari, so
Speaker 1: you like to think that they come back healthy, it
Speaker 1: only increases the pass rush. So uh, we shall see.
Speaker 1: I want to get too far ahead of myself because
Speaker 1: Daniel Jones still almost through a pick six that I
Speaker 1: still don't know how that it wasn't a pick six.
Speaker 1: I'm shocked. But the one thing we did see that
Speaker 1: that liked was that little running plate sort of ice
Speaker 1: the game to get the first down, which that is
Speaker 1: something that he can do that most other quarterbacks cannot do.
Speaker 1: It as be three or four others that could get
Speaker 1: that first down with their legs on a design play.
Speaker 1: So moving on, moving on. I know I've said on
Speaker 1: this show that I'm so sick of the term Super
Speaker 1: Bowl hangover. But but here we are. The Bengals are
Speaker 1: OH and two. They look as hungover as I did
Speaker 1: every Sunday in college. And Joe Burrow has more picks
Speaker 1: than touchdowns. He's sacked thirteen times, the most in the league.
Speaker 1: And I gotta say, I know he was injured in
Speaker 1: the preseason, so he didn't play, but it just kind
Speaker 1: of makes me think when players are healthy, and quarterbacks
Speaker 1: are healthy and they don't play in the preseason and
Speaker 1: they have a really slow start to the season, do
Speaker 1: we need to give the preseason a little bit more value? Again,
Speaker 1: I know injury, same with like Matt Stafford injury, couldn't play.
Speaker 1: But Joe Burrow has a new OH line and they
Speaker 1: didn't get many reps together and now they're sitting ohe too.
Speaker 1: Yet to your point, maybe maybe that's what it is.
Speaker 1: It's not so much that you can tell how good
Speaker 1: or bad someone's playing to other in preseason as much
Speaker 1: as it's just the reps and getting all the mistakes
Speaker 1: and all the miscommunication out. There's a lot of miscommunication
Speaker 1: on offensive line play, on you know, secondary play, especially
Speaker 1: in that Dolphins Ravens game. I don't know how you're
Speaker 1: guarding Tyreek kill one on one. There was a mistake.
Speaker 1: But as far as Burrow, you say super Bowl hangover,
Speaker 1: and I get that. To me, it's one thing and
Speaker 1: one thing only. The offensive line has been awful, awful.
Speaker 1: There's no big plays because it doesn't have more than
Speaker 1: two seconds to throw, so the routes with Jamar Chase
Speaker 1: are not taking time to develop. Yeah, Jamar Chase could
Speaker 1: bust the cold bust a slant for a d RDS,
Speaker 1: but that's unlikely. So I don't feel as bad though
Speaker 1: with the Bengals as an Ode two team, because look
Speaker 1: at that division, who are you trusting yet? In that
Speaker 1: division you would have thought the Ravens at halftime, but
Speaker 1: they've shown now defensively to have some issues. So not
Speaker 1: giving up on these Bengals. Are are you say, are
Speaker 1: you like calling it a Super Bowl hangover and lucky
Speaker 1: to make the playoffs? I don't know. And I was
Speaker 1: just like at the updated odds for them to make
Speaker 1: the playoffs is plus one forty, to miss is minus
Speaker 1: one eighty. And just let me tell you, Jerry that
Speaker 1: teams that are O and two only make the playoffs
Speaker 1: eleven percent of the time. That's since before I was born,
Speaker 1: And that's not good. A team that I am more
Speaker 1: excited about, that's so into that I think will turn
Speaker 1: it around because I just don't know what the Bengals
Speaker 1: are doing. But again, quick thing on the Bengals. They
Speaker 1: made it to the Super Bowl last year with the
Speaker 1: battle line as well, So what worked last year? That's
Speaker 1: not working now, you know what I mean? And were
Speaker 1: they lightning in a bottle? Last year? Was everything just
Speaker 1: clicking for some reason? Almost like Cam Newton's Panthers, you know,
Speaker 1: the first time around, not the second time around. But
Speaker 1: you see that happen. Teams just randomly are great for
Speaker 1: a year and then they lose it lightning a bottle.
Speaker 1: I don't know. But yeah, Raiders are oh and two
Speaker 1: as well. They're minus two six to miss the playoffs
Speaker 1: plus to tend to make it. And I just I'm
Speaker 1: not worried about the Raiders. I don't know why they
Speaker 1: only law week one, I think five points. You know
Speaker 1: last week it took the Cardinals to overtime. There's something there.
Speaker 1: Davante Adams is great. I know he wasn't last week.
Speaker 1: But they made the playoff last year with all this
Speaker 1: drama and and not a good start, and then they
Speaker 1: were one play away from beating the Bengals who went
Speaker 1: on to the Super Bowl. And I don't know, I
Speaker 1: guess I just am not giving up on the Raiders,
Speaker 1: whereas the Bengals I don't even want to touch. I'm
Speaker 1: with you, big game for the Bang. I gotta say
Speaker 1: to also shout outs to the NFL because the way
Speaker 1: the schedule is breaking. I thought the first week of
Speaker 1: games was amazing. Second week of games proved extremely entertaining,
Speaker 1: all the comebacks, and now we have so much more info.
Speaker 1: But yeah, you're looking at the Bengals going into the Jets,
Speaker 1: like if you look at that game early on and
Speaker 1: we're doing these podcasts trying to predict, oh, well, day
Speaker 1: that's a win. Are you really so sure? Are you're
Speaker 1: feeling confident Bengals laying four and a half against the
Speaker 1: scrappy Jets. I mean I that went from being all right,
Speaker 1: well they'll get things back on track to now, oh
Speaker 1: my god, the Jet's gonna be the pesky, annoying team
Speaker 1: that just gives people problems. As far as the Raiders go,
Speaker 1: I'm with the Raiders are so talented. It really upset
Speaker 1: me that they blew that game. I didn't have any
Speaker 1: action on the game, but I like that. I want
Speaker 1: the Raiders to be good. I want that division to
Speaker 1: be just while and right now the Raiders are on
Speaker 1: the short end and that's my warrior. Raiders is there
Speaker 1: in that division. And then we look around like the South,
Speaker 1: you know, the Jags, the Cults. I'm shore will get
Speaker 1: some wins at some point, you know the type. I
Speaker 1: don't know. It's gonna be really hard to make the
Speaker 1: playoffs because of that division. Well, that division was build
Speaker 1: so high, right, everyone said, Oh, it's the it's the
Speaker 1: best division. It's it's the one to watch. And now
Speaker 1: I feel like we're almos a little disappointed. I think
Speaker 1: we're disappointed with the Raiders and the Broncos. I think
Speaker 1: the Chiefs and the Chargers are giving us everything that
Speaker 1: we thought we had. But I think the Broncos for
Speaker 1: sure have been surprising a little bit. And I think
Speaker 1: the Raiders. The Raiders should be one th one. I mean,
Speaker 1: credits to Cardinals. That was an amazing comeback, almost over
Speaker 1: shadowed by the other comebacks, but the Raiders should be
Speaker 1: one and one that that one's going to hurt them.
Speaker 1: I think later in the year, So I guess what
Speaker 1: I mean disappointing, It's like it looks more clear. I
Speaker 1: think it's the Chiefs to win. You know, it's minus
Speaker 1: one oh five to win the f C West. So see,
Speaker 1: that's why you have a couple of teams series because
Speaker 1: now it looks like I think at my kand City,
Speaker 1: Chiefs are looking pretty good. Also for New Yorkers, we've
Speaker 1: got to pay this off. Sunday was the first time
Speaker 1: the Jets, Giants, Mets, and Yankees all one on the
Speaker 1: same day since two thousand nine. So too bad. That
Speaker 1: wasn't your parlay. That would have been a good one.
Speaker 1: My mind doesn't even think because I had to put that.
Speaker 1: It goes against everything I would believe in. But yeah,
Speaker 1: that was a pretty amazing day. I didn't realize that
Speaker 1: much time had gone by. But then I guess when
Speaker 1: you think about there's not a whole lot of you know,
Speaker 1: baseball games to choose from coming down the stretch here.
Speaker 1: But yeah, that was I think that's more of an
Speaker 1: indictment on how bad the Giants and Jets have been,
Speaker 1: less probably on the Yankees as a whole. So seriously, yeah,
Speaker 1: well we're gonna talk Week three lines and bets coming up,
Speaker 1: But first time for us to try and tackle the
Speaker 1: topic that we feel most passionately about this week. It's
Speaker 1: time very too unleash. It's time, all right, lad. Week two,
Speaker 1: we learned that some NFL offenses they're They're like Liam
Speaker 1: Neeson and taken all right. They have a very particular
Speaker 1: set of skills. No lead is safe. They will hunt
Speaker 1: you down, they will win. We saw it with the
Speaker 1: Dolphins Cardinals. We were talking about all the comebacks earlier,
Speaker 1: and I mean it's historic. It's been a history of
Speaker 1: multiple teams twenty point halftime deficits to win on the
Speaker 1: same day. Now, is this bad coaching or is this
Speaker 1: incredible playmaking? I don't know. I think everything is leaning
Speaker 1: towards bad coaching and miscommunication. We mentioned Tyree Kill being
Speaker 1: single covered. You have one job. Don't get beat deep,
Speaker 1: don't get long, you know, explosive plays, Brown's clock management,
Speaker 1: also special teams AMRII Cooper like you're not realizing that
Speaker 1: you gotta jump on that on sidekick. Also side note
Speaker 1: two more devastating extra points that were miss kid York
Speaker 1: and Joey Slide that easily could have helped their teams
Speaker 1: stay in that game. So what I'm getting at is
Speaker 1: we all knocked the prevent defense. Oh you want to
Speaker 1: prevent yourself? Ihone winning play the prevent defense. Maybe we
Speaker 1: need to go back to safety first, and maybe you
Speaker 1: need to drop five guys in the defensive secondary when
Speaker 1: you have a twenty eight or twenty one or fourteen
Speaker 1: point lead, Because the only thing that could hurt you
Speaker 1: is quick touchdowns? Is it? If it's an eight play,
Speaker 1: four or three minute drive, whatever, that will not kill
Speaker 1: you quick scores. I just don't understand it, and I'm
Speaker 1: not smart enough about football to understand why so many
Speaker 1: explosive plays happen with giant leads. But come on, let's
Speaker 1: figure this out together. We need something we can rely on.
Speaker 1: If you can't rely on a twenty eight point lead,
Speaker 1: that's it. I'm I'm done. It's really bothering me though.
Speaker 1: But don't you think it makes the game better and
Speaker 1: it makes the brand of NFL better to have point
Speaker 1: leads blown? It does, But when you're on the Brown
Speaker 1: and that when you're on the Brown's money line. I
Speaker 1: wasn't even on the Browns. Mine is six and a half.
Speaker 1: I was on the Browns money line. It's beautiful when
Speaker 1: you're on the Dolphins money line. But I don't know.
Speaker 1: I just really, when you're watching Tyreek Kill catch that touchdown,
Speaker 1: when you're watching, you know, Corey Davis catch that touchdown,
Speaker 1: you're thinking, this is the only thing that can't happen. Yeah,
Speaker 1: the only thing that can happen is a seventy eight
Speaker 1: yard touchdown strike. So I don't know, fix it, fix it.
Speaker 1: You would have been a great decord. You really could
Speaker 1: have done it. Gary. You'd never see your family. But
Speaker 1: by the way, ahead tell you that you live in
Speaker 1: a in a stadium office. I just wonder if the
Speaker 1: better option would be to rush rushed too, and put
Speaker 1: nine guys in the defensive secondary and just let them
Speaker 1: get five eight yard runs the entire away and let
Speaker 1: the clop keep running. I just don't know. That might
Speaker 1: have been a better version of what than what we saw.
Speaker 1: I hear you, I hear you. Okay, mine might be
Speaker 1: a little bit more controversial, and I hope you stick
Speaker 1: with me through this one. I think the forty niners
Speaker 1: are better today than they were last week? The far
Speaker 1: what do you think? I agree? I unfortunately agree, So
Speaker 1: I'm not a Tray Lance hater at all. I think
Speaker 1: he ultimately has the bigger upside, and this sucks for him.
Speaker 1: I feel so bad for him. You know, Tray Lance
Speaker 1: has not played much football. Like remember he went to
Speaker 1: North Dakota State and their last season was ended with COVID.
Speaker 1: They only had I think a couple of games, and
Speaker 1: he didn't play, you know, because he was getting ready
Speaker 1: for the draft and then injured. And then last year
Speaker 1: he didn't play much. I mean, this guy has not
Speaker 1: played much football in the last handful of years. So anyways,
Speaker 1: it just sucks for him. I feel horrible for him.
Speaker 1: My stomach sank when I saw this. But Jimmy G
Speaker 1: is the better option today. They can now go into
Speaker 1: games with a little bit more hutspu. They can open
Speaker 1: up the playbook. Jimmy G can do things that Tray can't.
Speaker 1: And we saw this after he scored a touchdown. The
Speaker 1: forty Niners players were celebrating with him. They love him.
Speaker 1: He's a well liked guy. The players want to win now.
Speaker 1: They don't care about building and they don't care about
Speaker 1: this is better for the franchise. You know, a lot
Speaker 1: of guys are on one year deals if if that,
Speaker 1: A lot of guys don't care about if the Niners
Speaker 1: are good in two years. They want to win this
Speaker 1: game this weekend. After the game, Jimmy g saying he's
Speaker 1: so comfortable. He loves the game, he loves the team,
Speaker 1: he loved the scheme most importantly, and ultimately Kyle Shanahan
Speaker 1: got to call different plays the second Jimmy went on
Speaker 1: the field. Trey wasn't ready as a passer, yet they're
Speaker 1: running him a ton. His accuracy was a huge question
Speaker 1: mark in camp. In practices, media had covered it. That
Speaker 1: was known. Jimmy can throw from the pocket, he's comfortable,
Speaker 1: and now they can just distribute the ball. They have
Speaker 1: so many more options. Now they can move the chains.
Speaker 1: So I feel so bad again Trey Lance Week one
Speaker 1: ship show, rainstorm in Chicago and embarrassing loss. He couldn't
Speaker 1: do much. And then this week too, just absolutely sex
Speaker 1: also sprinkling some bad press in between after he was
Speaker 1: making it rain in a strip club. That doesn't bother
Speaker 1: me at all. Go do whatever you want to do.
Speaker 1: It's just, you know, not a great week for the guy.
Speaker 1: And also San Francisco already down running back Eli Mitchell
Speaker 1: Hall of Fame, tied end George Kittle, who I think
Speaker 1: is coming back this week, by the way, but they
Speaker 1: need Jimmy more than ever. They can't afford to have
Speaker 1: these teaching learning moments and this limited playbook. They're built
Speaker 1: to win. Now, this has to happen now. And remember
Speaker 1: last year they went to the NFC Championship, which, by
Speaker 1: the way, they should have never left Green Bay with
Speaker 1: a win. But anyways, and that was with Jimmy injured.
Speaker 1: You get a messed up shoulder, you get a messed
Speaker 1: up thumb, and now he's healthy, so can he stay
Speaker 1: that way? I mean, Jerry, do you remember we asked
Speaker 1: Andrew Brandt, We asked a Glazer, Oh, you know, Jimmy
Speaker 1: g go to Cleveland until Tashawan is back? Should he
Speaker 1: go to Dallas until Dak is back? And both of
Speaker 1: those guys, and they're pretty smart, they kept saying no.
Speaker 1: They have the best backup in the NFL. So the
Speaker 1: Niners knew what they were doing. They knew that Trails
Speaker 1: had showed this poor accuracy. They were going to run
Speaker 1: them all over the place a lot of r P
Speaker 1: O and that makes him vulnerable. So I don't know,
Speaker 1: I'm excited now about what San Francisco has coming up.
Speaker 1: They have the Rams twice in October and the Chiefs.
Speaker 1: That's gonna be a tough stretch, but they have some
Speaker 1: easy away games. They're at Denver this week, that's Sunday
Speaker 1: Night football. I think they should win, and then at
Speaker 1: Panthers and at Falcons, so all of a sudden it's
Speaker 1: a new season. Yeah. I like the four years to
Speaker 1: win that division. Now, my Seahawks pick was always with
Speaker 1: the tray Lance element involved. The whole thing. I'm with
Speaker 1: that's a great unleash. You cannot backwalk your seat. I'm not,
Speaker 1: I'm but if Jimmy G was the starter week one,
Speaker 1: I would not have been as excited to pump this one.
Speaker 1: But yeah, the whole tray Lance thing is strange from
Speaker 1: where they took them in the draft and what they
Speaker 1: gave up to get them and then the gym. It's
Speaker 1: just it's very it's a very very bizarre storyline. As
Speaker 1: as too, I'm with you, I love storyline. We're getting
Speaker 1: the most unfortunate version because we're seeing the injury put
Speaker 1: off and then Jimmy G, to his credit to like
Speaker 1: he's said all the right things he hasn't taken any shots,
Speaker 1: he hasn't gone to social media. All right, He's just
Speaker 1: sat back, got his check, said I'm gonna get healthy
Speaker 1: and I'm gonna make a boatload of money next year
Speaker 1: and try and compete for a championship. But now he's
Speaker 1: getting you know, he essentially has a contract year now
Speaker 1: in a way, you know. So it's a bizarre one
Speaker 1: to say the least. Good unleash though, Olivia, good unleash.
Speaker 1: Thank you, thank you, thank you. Yeah, I'm not letting
Speaker 1: you walk back your Seahawks pick. I'm not walking it back.
Speaker 1: And Peter Andrew, I can't wait to talk to you.
Speaker 1: This is on you, buddy, This one's on you. What
Speaker 1: what happened? You did a reverse jinx and it's terrible.
Speaker 1: But yeah, just also, they did look a lot more comfortable.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. The minute Jimmy g came in, he hit
Speaker 1: like a fifteen yard out route that like they didn't
Speaker 1: have that play available to them, I don't think. So. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm excited to see what the Niners do this week.
Speaker 1: But I really do feel terrible for for Trey Lance
Speaker 1: because you just at least want the guy to get
Speaker 1: a shot you're gonna lose your job, lose your job
Speaker 1: because of you know, because of talent. But yeah, I do.
Speaker 1: I like them against the Broncos. I'm with you. I
Speaker 1: love it all. Right, let's talk more Week three storylines.
Speaker 1: Let's bring in Brad Evans. Okay, we're only two weeks
Speaker 1: into the season, of course, but what is a preseason
Speaker 1: futures bet that you wish he didn't make and what's
Speaker 1: one that you wish you did well? I honestly did
Speaker 1: not wager on any preseason futures bets outside of one.
Speaker 1: And of course someone has already toasted. I took the
Speaker 1: overall tray lance for rush yards at five hundred and
Speaker 1: a half and he's done so. But he had clean surgery,
Speaker 1: so hopefully he's gotta get a swift recovery. So that
Speaker 1: was one I wish I didn't make. But unfortunate. Well,
Speaker 1: the good news is is you can kind of make
Speaker 1: up for that just maybe riding the Niners, because I
Speaker 1: was the only one who made a Seahawks to Asian pick,
Speaker 1: and then that's kind of gon cinic. The Niners go
Speaker 1: runaway with that division. Now, But now we look, we
Speaker 1: talked a lot in this episode about all the comebacks
Speaker 1: last week and now going into this week, Are you
Speaker 1: changing any philosophy now that the fact that it seems
Speaker 1: that no lead is safe? Do you change anything? First half,
Speaker 1: second half? Well, what are you thinking after watching those
Speaker 1: three insane historic comebacks? Yeah, I mean you do have
Speaker 1: to reassess. And you know it's the NFL. It's no
Speaker 1: freaking logic. I mean, it certainly applies every single week.
Speaker 1: And you think a game is you know, done and
Speaker 1: and and concrete it's gonna be an l for a
Speaker 1: certain team. And then make that triumph and come back
Speaker 1: of the case in point to a tack of a
Speaker 1: low on the Miami Dolphins. Just a stirring performance. And
Speaker 1: you know, the Dolphins I think are for real. I
Speaker 1: can assess that now after the very small sample size
Speaker 1: of two games. TVD you know asked me again that
Speaker 1: question in a week number ten. But I think it's team.
Speaker 1: You know, with the speed that they have outside at
Speaker 1: Tyreek Hill and Jalen Waddle, they just tax defenders repeated
Speaker 1: And I think one of the redeeming qualities that we
Speaker 1: saw in that comfort behind Victor against Baltimore was the
Speaker 1: fact that got Mike Kasecki again involved. And you know,
Speaker 1: we had hurt preseason that Cassecki was gonna be an
Speaker 1: afterthought at the tied in position within this offensive scheme.
Speaker 1: But to have found him, not only found him a
Speaker 1: connected with a touchdown. To me, that is a striking
Speaker 1: development in the Miami Dolphins vertical game and one I'm
Speaker 1: really anxious to see whether or not it's going to
Speaker 1: continue this week and moving forward. But yeah, look, it's
Speaker 1: the NFL. It's predictable and unpredictable. At the same time,
Speaker 1: we still have a small sample size, so I'm right
Speaker 1: now still in learning mode, though I'm losing my shirt
Speaker 1: in the process. All Right, you're hot on the Dolphins,
Speaker 1: but they host the Super Bowl favorite Buffalo Bills this weekend.
Speaker 1: Both teams are to a no and Bills five and
Speaker 1: a half point favorite. Looking ahead of that game, specifically,
Speaker 1: what are you gonna do? I take Miami if I
Speaker 1: had a lane on the line, And you know, I
Speaker 1: usually a hammer the player props market because that's where
Speaker 1: the inadequacies and inefficiencies generally lie within the marketplace. And
Speaker 1: hopefully you're following my spreadsheet that I have absolutely for
Speaker 1: free all the time on social media on Twitter at
Speaker 1: Noisy Huevos post all my props there and a ton
Speaker 1: of them from bet MGM, wh already have somewhere. I'll
Speaker 1: believe it or not on the Thursday game, but in
Speaker 1: that game in particular, you know I will be zeroing
Speaker 1: in on what Toua comes out at with his past
Speaker 1: yards prop. You know what version we get to see
Speaker 1: of this Baltimore secondary. True Dabus White we know was out.
Speaker 1: We know that Dane Jackson had that frightening injury on
Speaker 1: Monday night is unlikely to play as well. So this
Speaker 1: Buffalo secondary thinner than they normally are, and I think
Speaker 1: my name is gonna be able to keep pace offensively
Speaker 1: and what should be a game that goes well over
Speaker 1: the opening total of fifty two and a half. I
Speaker 1: believe this one will deliver on the hype. I think
Speaker 1: points will be a plenty and the good time is
Speaker 1: gonna be rolling for both squads, so offensively scoring will
Speaker 1: not be an ept in this contest. Look, we all
Speaker 1: anxiously await the prop lines from bet MGM, refreshing screens
Speaker 1: waiting from the come up. Is there anything you're willing
Speaker 1: to share prop wise? Yet you talked about the spreadsheet.
Speaker 1: But we're talking here people listening, uh, prop wise, I
Speaker 1: see a glimmer in your eye when when the prop
Speaker 1: just the mention of props came up. So anything you're
Speaker 1: willing to share on the pod right now, I already
Speaker 1: have too many props locked and loaded for Thursday night.
Speaker 1: So let's go ahead and divolte all the intimate details
Speaker 1: what I have on my bedding card. I've got four
Speaker 1: wagers already made. I'll probably have born again. I haven't
Speaker 1: focused right there on the spreadsheet and track them absolutely
Speaker 1: for free, good, badly ugly actually upright now a little
Speaker 1: over four un it's on this season, so hopefully we'll
Speaker 1: stay profitable here in week number three. But the one
Speaker 1: that I found very striking when it opened initially and
Speaker 1: bet MGM is Kareem Hunt, and I took the under
Speaker 1: on forty four and a half rush yards. Now he's
Speaker 1: gone over this total in back to back games, have
Speaker 1: forty s Skins Carolina fifty eight against the Jets. But
Speaker 1: I mean again, look at the quality of the opponent there.
Speaker 1: The Steelers have given up well south but four yards
Speaker 1: per carry the running back position so far this year.
Speaker 1: And Haunt is like getting of the opportunity share when
Speaker 1: you have rubbing dub dub Nick Chubb. The Chubb Club
Speaker 1: is open for business right now, a bottle service for everybody,
Speaker 1: because he's breaking tackles left and right. Absolutely a steam
Speaker 1: train in the open field, and I don't see that
Speaker 1: really changing. So forty four and a half rush yards
Speaker 1: a little rich for my blood. That's why I think
Speaker 1: the under is gonna prevail. And I think the under
Speaker 1: also applies to the other running back in this game,
Speaker 1: where in the maze and black and that is Nausea
Speaker 1: Harris of the Pittsburgh Steelers. The toll opens a fifty
Speaker 1: five and a half rush yards. I think that's too
Speaker 1: high a player that has struggled to get appreciable yards
Speaker 1: after contact act what he was known for back in
Speaker 1: his days at Alabama, but it certainly hasn't showed up
Speaker 1: so far this season. I like his receiving guards prop
Speaker 1: which opens at seventy and a half, and I expect
Speaker 1: that number to march northward. But I am under on
Speaker 1: fifty five and a half of rush yards against a
Speaker 1: very talented front of the Cleveland Browns. Oh all they
Speaker 1: do is early plug goals, all right? I like that,
Speaker 1: I like get into the player props. Let's go ahead
Speaker 1: and look at Sunday Night football as well, if there
Speaker 1: are any that you like there. I went off earlier
Speaker 1: in the show about I think the San Francisco forty
Speaker 1: Niners are better with Jimmy G and I like them
Speaker 1: to win in Denver Sunday Night Football one or one
Speaker 1: and a half point favorite depends where you look, and
Speaker 1: that might change up until Sunday Night. But for like
Speaker 1: Jimmy G props, is there something there that you like? No,
Speaker 1: I mean, and nothing's opened yet for the Sunday night game,
Speaker 1: but I will say this, whatever the uh delay of
Speaker 1: game penalties is for the Denver Broncos slam the over
Speaker 1: Daddy want Daddy Daddy to have. If they don't know
Speaker 1: what clock management is, they suck at it. I know
Speaker 1: the patrons were there in the Maleigh City at Empower
Speaker 1: Field and they were screaming the numbers out as the
Speaker 1: clock was counting down to Russell Wilson and Nathaniel Hack
Speaker 1: to make sure they knew how much time was left
Speaker 1: on the play clock. That's how bad they had been
Speaker 1: this season at Basic Football one oh one. Now a
Speaker 1: couple of problems. I will look out for Courtland Sutton
Speaker 1: receiving yards. He used the clear cut number one. Jerry
Speaker 1: Judy is gonna be very iffy whether or not he's
Speaker 1: gonna be able to even play in this game. So
Speaker 1: it could be a targets hog type of affair for
Speaker 1: Sutton in this one. Who's gonna get back to who's
Speaker 1: a thousand yard days from a couple of years ago.
Speaker 1: I loved him when he came out at SMBU went
Speaker 1: so far, so good this season, and he got to
Speaker 1: look at Juggernaut Javante Williams and Melvin Gordon on the ground.
Speaker 1: Javonte Williams has been quite the magician in the open field.
Speaker 1: He's got the shimmy shake racket up those his tackles
Speaker 1: force this season probably gonna get anywhere between fifteen and
Speaker 1: seventeen carriers in this game. You get a number round
Speaker 1: fifty nine and a half rush yards, maybe sixty and
Speaker 1: a half. I would take the over there, and I
Speaker 1: also would take the over on Melvin Gordon despite being
Speaker 1: seasoned and board unto jurassic, because he's been in the
Speaker 1: league seemingly forever. If his totals at like I don't know,
Speaker 1: forty and a half, forty one a half. I would
Speaker 1: lean slightly over there, or maybe do a one game
Speaker 1: parlay on bet MGM. Get the thresholds a little bit lower,
Speaker 1: get a little two leg action because we don't have
Speaker 1: to go full Calvin Ridley. We don't need seven legs
Speaker 1: on a parlay. Get at a plus odds and build
Speaker 1: the bank roll. I love that strategy. Weekend, a week
Speaker 1: out earlier, I was saying, you know, because I I
Speaker 1: caught that bad beat with the Browns Jets game. I
Speaker 1: was on the Browns money line, totally rippen my parley
Speaker 1: to shred. I hit every other party. I was on
Speaker 1: the Dolphins money line. But watching the first half of
Speaker 1: that game, Lamar Jackson. If we're gonna do a draft
Speaker 1: of scariest players to bet against, I think Lamar Acton
Speaker 1: might be number one, whereas Tyree Hills. You know, players
Speaker 1: you most likely would want to root for in a bit.
Speaker 1: Is there a player and even in the player props sense,
Speaker 1: even if you love the number, you're like, that number
Speaker 1: looks tasty and I know I gotta go after that.
Speaker 1: Is there is there any players that just just give
Speaker 1: you a Maybe they burned in the past, you get
Speaker 1: a little anxiety. The number is good, but he's like,
Speaker 1: I don't want to do it, but I gotta do it.
Speaker 1: There any players you try to avoid, just from history
Speaker 1: or just overall your own heart rate, Well, I'm a
Speaker 1: Chicago Bears fan, and truthfully, I have had thoughts that
Speaker 1: borderline on mantastic. You could say, for one, Mandatory Montgomery.
Speaker 1: I love him like a child, like a brother, like
Speaker 1: a boyfriend like he I adore him. I kissed the
Speaker 1: ground that he walks on. I think he's an amazing
Speaker 1: football player. And we saw the break tackle ability on
Speaker 1: Sunday night against the Green Bay Packers, and I'm just like,
Speaker 1: just give him the damn rock twenty times already. But flues,
Speaker 1: that's all we gotta do. So I have been burned
Speaker 1: on a multitude of Mandatory Montgomery pops over the years,
Speaker 1: but I will say this, Houston can cure most sales.
Speaker 1: And I know the You know, the Texans played formidably
Speaker 1: last week all the road against the mad High representatives
Speaker 1: in the Denver Broncos. But they're still giving a four
Speaker 1: point eight five yards per carried to the running back position.
Speaker 1: So if the Bears can do their job ap front,
Speaker 1: open up some holes, let mandatory Montgomery create. If he
Speaker 1: does that, he's gonna make me smola. I don't care
Speaker 1: what the rush Earth prop up and said, I'm taking
Speaker 1: it over again. I love it. Okay, we gotta play
Speaker 1: a game, and we're actually stealing this one from you.
Speaker 1: It's Fade or Follow. You play this game, So we
Speaker 1: thought we'd have some fun and ask you some of
Speaker 1: our own and summer actual Beck some week completely made up.
Speaker 1: So you're ready to play Fade or Fall? Al right?
Speaker 1: First one, Odell Beck Jr. Will play this season in
Speaker 1: which team I say follow, And he used to be
Speaker 1: hanging around the Rams because I I think he wants
Speaker 1: to re establish the brotherhood. So I'm gonna say right
Speaker 1: now he's gonna be back in l A with the
Speaker 1: Ramis sometime later this year, So follow, all right, I
Speaker 1: got one for you. Malik Willis will play before Kenny
Speaker 1: Pickett Fade or Follow. Oh that's a really good one.
Speaker 1: The way that Robinsky and I can't believe I'm seeing this.
Speaker 1: He's actually looked adequate as a disgruntled Bears fan. I'm
Speaker 1: shocked that he has been. It was somebody that's at
Speaker 1: least been serviceable. I'm gonna say Malik Willis will be
Speaker 1: ahead of Kenny Pickett. So I believe that is a
Speaker 1: follow on that notion, just in sort of now Titans,
Speaker 1: because Ryan Tandle's that running. He doesn't have a whole
Speaker 1: lot of zip in his legs like in the past.
Speaker 1: Malik Wolves has a cannon of an arm and he
Speaker 1: is a modern day NFL quarterback. It could be your
Speaker 1: version of Jalen Hurts. Speaking of Titans coach Mike rabel Is,
Speaker 1: the first NFL coach to be fired, fade or follow
Speaker 1: a baid and it won't be brable. It'll be somebody else.
Speaker 1: I don't know who that's going to be, but somebody
Speaker 1: is gonna have some skeleton's release out of the class
Speaker 1: and they'll be gone. All right, sticky with it? Uh?
Speaker 1: We have an No. One two team here, the Bengals,
Speaker 1: you know, minus four and a half? Will the Bengals
Speaker 1: just get their first win of the season this Sunday
Speaker 1: versus the Jets? Fair to follow? I say follow. Look,
Speaker 1: the jetsaman a great story. Joe Flacco is doing something
Speaker 1: spectacular for forties somethings or near forties some things. He's
Speaker 1: a gray beard. He was around before the combustible engine
Speaker 1: I think was invented. But ultimately I think the Jets
Speaker 1: will take a step back. Sincinna, He's gotta rise the occasion.
Speaker 1: The offensive line is gonna congeal. It's gonna gell at
Speaker 1: some point. It's just way too much talent. But he
Speaker 1: got Jamaar Chasea te Higgins and Tyler Boyd and Joe
Speaker 1: Mixing and yeah, some random dude named Joe Burrow and
Speaker 1: he have an upgraded tied in with Hayden Hurst. They'll
Speaker 1: find their bearings do get them straight. And it starts
Speaker 1: this week. Alright, I got the last one and the best.
Speaker 1: Entourage is the best HBO comedy of all time. Fade
Speaker 1: or follow? Well, do I have to fuck her? Upsets?
Speaker 1: We have a certain co host here follow We're following it. Then,
Speaker 1: all right, Brad, that was a lot of fun. Thanks
Speaker 1: so much for joining us. We hope you come back
Speaker 1: later the season. Appreciate it, guys, make all that money. Peace. Alright,
Speaker 1: my Entourage update. As you all know, I'm watching it
Speaker 1: for the first time. I am loving this show. I
Speaker 1: get why it has all the accolades it does. It
Speaker 1: is a fantastic show, and I have the pleasure of
Speaker 1: having my co host be one of the stars of it. So, Jerry,
Speaker 1: I'm on season three, episode ten. You guys just had
Speaker 1: a great episode in Vegas. You've got to tell me
Speaker 1: behind the scenes stories of every time you guys went
Speaker 1: to Vegas, Vegas, Baby Vegas. Yeah, that's a good one. So,
Speaker 1: oh gosh, you know, I always love those episodes where
Speaker 1: we would get out of Los Angeles a little bit.
Speaker 1: We've talked about the Sundance one, We've talked, We've just
Speaker 1: talked about traveling on the show. So we shot that
Speaker 1: in Vegas. It felt like our little version of Oceans eleven.
Speaker 1: And I think it's mainly because in between every take,
Speaker 1: we're running to the blackjack table or to the crafts table. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we were like assigned, you know, p a s. We
Speaker 1: were like, okay, when we call cut, you follow them
Speaker 1: because they're gonna go gamble. And that week we were
Speaker 1: there for eight days shooting. I think I won thirty
Speaker 1: two thousand dollars playing Watch and I was not playing
Speaker 1: like ridiculous amounts of money. I was just on a
Speaker 1: heater and I was so young and stupid that I
Speaker 1: actually if I rented a car to drive the money
Speaker 1: home because I was worried going through security with that
Speaker 1: kind of cash and I thought I was a drug deal.
Speaker 1: I rented the car and drove back to l A,
Speaker 1: which is what like six hours, right, that's like three
Speaker 1: and a half. If you know what you're going call
Speaker 1: it four though, say if you're abiding by speed limits,
Speaker 1: we'll call it four hours. Oh my god. So it
Speaker 1: takes eight days to film an episode or just an
Speaker 1: episode like that, and usually at that point, I think
Speaker 1: we were around seven or eight days when you factor
Speaker 1: in the travel, like you have a travel day there,
Speaker 1: travel day back. Also, we most of our crew came
Speaker 1: out there as well. And then that's a great episode
Speaker 1: for you to be watching right now because I saw
Speaker 1: on social media the way that episode ends with what
Speaker 1: Johnny Drama does to seth Green. It was very Mike
Speaker 1: Evans and Lattimore. Everyone was saying Mike Evans with full
Speaker 1: Johnny Drama coming out of nowhere, saying yeah, I got
Speaker 1: a problem. Uh yeah, Oh that's so good. I gotta
Speaker 1: say this episode in this season stressed me out because
Speaker 1: I feel like there's such feel for Ari. It makes
Speaker 1: me so frustrated that to get to Vince he has
Speaker 1: to go through E, and then not only has to
Speaker 1: go through E, he has to go through Johnny because
Speaker 1: now he's representing him and now he's also representing you.
Speaker 1: And the whole thing stresses me out when he's like
Speaker 1: talking to heads of studios and I'm just kinda like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, just and it seems so dated now
Speaker 1: because it's like the flip phone answering and like no
Speaker 1: one's really texting, Like texting wasn't it wasn't a thing.
Speaker 1: That episode is still even like pre BlackBerry. I remember
Speaker 1: we all it all started getting a lot less phone
Speaker 1: callie when the BlackBerry really hit and everybody was BBM ng.
Speaker 1: I'll remember that. You might be too young for the
Speaker 1: BBM crazy. I don't remember that, but I will say, also,
Speaker 1: what did it stand for BlackBerry BlackBerry Messenger? It basically
Speaker 1: was like, you know, like a group chat for BlackBerry only.
Speaker 1: I mean, this is really yeah, we're well, I'm old. Uh.
Speaker 1: But something else that happens in that episode two at
Speaker 1: the end with the fight and all that is, you know,
Speaker 1: you go rehearse that scene. Let's just call it what
Speaker 1: it is. No actor, and I'll speak for all actors.
Speaker 1: No actor loves walking in for a scene where there's
Speaker 1: fighting involved and you discover you're on the losing end
Speaker 1: of the fight. I don't care how good of an
Speaker 1: actor you are. No actor wants to get their ass
Speaker 1: kicked in a scene. That's just the bottom line. So
Speaker 1: when we shot, when we rehearsed that scene, it was
Speaker 1: a little more even. By the time we got done
Speaker 1: with it, that fight was it was a it was
Speaker 1: a one side of the fair by the time we
Speaker 1: got done talking about it. Oh jeez, I bet that
Speaker 1: was a fun table read too. I'm always curious when
Speaker 1: you have a table read for each episode, do scenes
Speaker 1: from that still get cut or is that the episode? Well,
Speaker 1: sometimes scenes will get cut right after the table read.
Speaker 1: I've always taken the table reads very very seriously. Actors
Speaker 1: have gotten fired from table reads, you know, just it's weird.
Speaker 1: It's such a catch twenty two because you're told, you know,
Speaker 1: it's a table reading, so the writers and directors and
Speaker 1: producers could hear it, and you know it's not really serious,
Speaker 1: but it is helpful, and then you see someone get fired.
Speaker 1: It's like, wait a minute, I thought this wasn't. Seriously,
Speaker 1: it's like having a practice and we're all right, we're
Speaker 1: going half speed here, and then you get you get
Speaker 1: cut because you didn't go a hundred percent. It's just
Speaker 1: so confusing. But more so than like scenes get cut.
Speaker 1: The thing that usually happens with table reads, especially with
Speaker 1: comedy as jokes. So if you're and that's why I
Speaker 1: always prepared really heavily for table readings, because if your
Speaker 1: jokes don't get laughs at table readings, they get cut it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: so I think that it's like making the most of
Speaker 1: your reps and to get the sports reference. If you're
Speaker 1: in camp, it's like, you know, every rep counts, So
Speaker 1: if you have even the smallest joke, you better hit
Speaker 1: it because it most of the time will get cut
Speaker 1: if it doesn't work. I didn't tell you this, but
Speaker 1: our Monday unleashed production calls kind of work the same.
Speaker 1: So if you don't really bring it on the Monday call,
Speaker 1: you still might get cut from the show. Um No,
Speaker 1: but you've told me that your character does get more
Speaker 1: of like a evolution coming up, and I can tell
Speaker 1: we're on the precipice of it. Were you excited in
Speaker 1: real time as you notice like, oh my god, they've
Speaker 1: turn to like doing stuff. Now with Saigon, you're like
Speaker 1: in the game, you're managing him. Were you like, oh,
Speaker 1: my character is gonna get a little bit bigger here. Yes,
Speaker 1: definitely was the latest to develop and get his sort
Speaker 1: of blow up. And I think it was just because
Speaker 1: also in real life, I was the youngest and probably
Speaker 1: the most inexperienced actor of the crew coming in. But yeah,
Speaker 1: this is around the time. The Saigon stuff was really
Speaker 1: really cool because he turned the character had no direction
Speaker 1: whatsoever other than just Vince is the greatest actor of
Speaker 1: all time. I'm going to smoke a lot of weed
Speaker 1: and that's it. So when Saigon comes in, you get
Speaker 1: the first little, you know, glimmer of entrepreneurship from Turtle.
Speaker 1: But there is more coming. There's more coming for you.
Speaker 1: You getting this co host job has been the best
Speaker 1: thing that ever happened to me because now I'm loving
Speaker 1: It's like my new favorite show. And then I'm gonna
Speaker 1: watch Power after this. So when I'm done with Entourage,
Speaker 1: I'm watching Power. Oh well that good. Wow, Olivia. I
Speaker 1: think I should actually apologize because you got me for
Speaker 1: like a hundred and fifty episodes. Still that's gonna I mean,
Speaker 1: my lud, I wouldn't. I don't think i'd subject my
Speaker 1: kids to that. I'm sorry, Hey, they're gonna watch one day,
Speaker 1: They're gonna want to watch this. It's every episode I
Speaker 1: watched too. I think about your kids watching now. Anytime
Speaker 1: you do something really inappropriate, I'm like, Oh, that's gonna
Speaker 1: be an awkward one. Yeah, I know I need. I
Speaker 1: need like a very g rated Disney kind of I
Speaker 1: just I would love to do a project right now
Speaker 1: that I could show my kids like now, that would
Speaker 1: be the coolest. I think that would be one of
Speaker 1: the coolest things in my career if I could get there.
Speaker 1: So I'm gonna try. I'm not really thought of for
Speaker 1: those movies. You've got a great voice, though, you'd be
Speaker 1: great in like a cartoon voiceover. That's what kids do. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna have to write my own and get
Speaker 1: my own That's yeah, that's the way to do it.
Speaker 1: I love it. All right, one more next week? All right, now,
Speaker 1: let's get into some Week three wagering with our bet
Speaker 1: MGM betting analy list, our odds on favorite Peter Andrew Seahawks,
Speaker 1: Jinkser welcome back to the show, buddy. How are you
Speaker 1: doing today? Some may say I went three for three
Speaker 1: of my picks. I know the numbers show two for three,
Speaker 1: but we know why that third one hit from me. Yeah,
Speaker 1: let's do a brief recap. You're up one point four
Speaker 1: units total on the week. You won the Dolphins game,
Speaker 1: as did I the Texans at three units each, then
Speaker 1: the reverse jinks, but you actually kind of hit that
Speaker 1: one in the single game partlight like you're getting closer
Speaker 1: on though. I'm gonna I'm actually gonna ride with you
Speaker 1: this week, but this is a big one. We gotta
Speaker 1: start getting this up number. The one point four units,
Speaker 1: we gotta work on that and get up a little
Speaker 1: bit more. Yeah, how are you feeling about Week three?
Speaker 1: No more reverse Jinxes this week. I think we're gonna
Speaker 1: just go what I'm feeling in my heart. Not going
Speaker 1: to toy with your heart and your Seahawks. But I
Speaker 1: feel really good about these. I think it was an
Speaker 1: amazing last week. I mean, there was incredible games. The
Speaker 1: Dolphins game was unbelievable, at risk of not covering anywhere
Speaker 1: close to that three and a half for lots of
Speaker 1: the game, but to uh, I mean we talked a
Speaker 1: lot of shit about in between Wattle and to kill.
Speaker 1: I mean he might have what it takes to get
Speaker 1: over the hump this year. We were actually talking about
Speaker 1: that earlier in the show of such mixed reviews onto
Speaker 1: a tongue of below. It's I don't know what this
Speaker 1: guy has done everyone, but there's like a firm to
Speaker 1: a hate fan club in the media. Where do you
Speaker 1: fall on that, Peter? Uh, I have a good buddy
Speaker 1: who's a huge, annoying Dolphins fan, So I've leaned on
Speaker 1: the hate side. Now after what do you throw six
Speaker 1: touchdowns on Sunday, I'm kind of back on the wagon.
Speaker 1: I mean, he's never really done anything too for people
Speaker 1: to hate him. I mean, he was amazing at Bama
Speaker 1: National Championship, comes in, wins the title. He's had a
Speaker 1: mediocre at best offense up until this year. Obviously they
Speaker 1: have a wider Super one now, so it's a bit unfair.
Speaker 1: I do it for personal reasons, but I think they're
Speaker 1: leget and they've they've got a really good defense too.
Speaker 1: You're such a heel, Peter. This is a season two Pete. Now,
Speaker 1: Oh are you kind of villain? Yeah? Full heel turn.
Speaker 1: Definitely not wearing any trolling shirts this week. All right,
Speaker 1: so that we got our ten units at play again
Speaker 1: this week. Okay, how you spreading him out this week?
Speaker 1: Where are we going first? So we'll go top of
Speaker 1: the in the first Niners Broncos Sunday Night Football. It's
Speaker 1: given a bit of research on this because one of
Speaker 1: those games that Russ always wakes up for was those
Speaker 1: Seahawk Niners games. They were the obviously biggest rival for
Speaker 1: probably sevent eight years. I'm taking the over, so it's
Speaker 1: already moved from forty three and a half to forty
Speaker 1: five and a half last I want to say, last
Speaker 1: six seasons. I think it's been eleven or twelve games
Speaker 1: the points have gone over when Russ plays the Niners.
Speaker 1: I know that's not a like for like comparison, brand
Speaker 1: new team, but I think, like I said, he wakes
Speaker 1: up for those games. I think he's excited they have
Speaker 1: something to prove after pretty awful performances in two straight weeks.
Speaker 1: I know they won against the Texans, but not convincingly.
Speaker 1: It's so uh total right now is I think somewhere
Speaker 1: around forty six and a half or four I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: forty five and a half. I like that to go over.
Speaker 1: I think it's a decently high scoring game, and you know,
Speaker 1: the Niners side in me, this is a weirdly good
Speaker 1: thing for the Niners because in the short term the win. Now,
Speaker 1: I think Jimmy's probably more capable tray was the super
Speaker 1: high ceiling high upside can do the crazy, freakishly good plays.
Speaker 1: But Jimmy came in, and I mean the offense was
Speaker 1: like it was last year, where they're running lots of
Speaker 1: play action, getting lots of different wide receivers targets. Had
Speaker 1: no Kiddle. Still, I think he'll be back for this week,
Speaker 1: so they probably come in and fall suit the same
Speaker 1: way they did last week too, So I love the over.
Speaker 1: How quick do you think Kyle Shannon had the Jimmy
Speaker 1: G playbook ready when Trey went out he was in
Speaker 1: his back pocket. Did he just pull it right out, like, oh,
Speaker 1: here it is, let's go, let's go. They wanted to
Speaker 1: say no, it wasn't, but was yeah, exactly, all right?
Speaker 1: So that's three units. You like that? Yeah? Three units there?
Speaker 1: All right? What else? So? Second one? Two high scoring
Speaker 1: teams Bills Dolphins. They play in Miami this week, totals high,
Speaker 1: but people both teams are putting up. Diggs was unbelievable
Speaker 1: on Monday Night football three touchdowns hit a one game
Speaker 1: party there that I'll talk about after this, But I
Speaker 1: think between those two offenses there's gonna be points. I mean,
Speaker 1: you can easily see a thirty to twenty seven game.
Speaker 1: I don't think that's a ridiculous number to point out,
Speaker 1: and I can see that number going a little bit higher.
Speaker 1: So as soon as you see that fifty four, I'd
Speaker 1: take it. And like we said about the Dolphins Waddle
Speaker 1: and to re kill fantasy wise putting up forty points
Speaker 1: each multiple touchdown games, Waddle look like a real wide
Speaker 1: receiver one too. So there are scary offense right now
Speaker 1: until otherwise seen Pete. How high would you take that total?
Speaker 1: Probably fifty seven would be my cap. Anything after that,
Speaker 1: and and again that's when the public starts pounding something
Speaker 1: like the over. I think public is gonna pound the bills.
Speaker 1: So that's why I'm kind of sticking away from the
Speaker 1: spread there because I can go either way. But I
Speaker 1: think points wise are in a way better spot. Assuming
Speaker 1: weather's great, assuming everything's all good in Miami. I think
Speaker 1: both teams are going to come out and spread the
Speaker 1: ball around. All right, that's six units. You've got four
Speaker 1: more remaining. So I'm doing the same as last week
Speaker 1: three three three, and then the O G P for
Speaker 1: one the third three unit play Jets Jets four and
Speaker 1: a half. I think it's at right now. Bengals do
Speaker 1: not look good. They are not the same team as
Speaker 1: last year. I think we've talked about it. They're a
Speaker 1: little bit of a fraud team here. I know they
Speaker 1: came back against Cowboys, but they just don't look the
Speaker 1: same as they did, and I think it's because they're
Speaker 1: not surprising teams this year. I think they're coming out
Speaker 1: and obviously there's in the Super Bowl, so I'm not
Speaker 1: totally convinced on them. Offensive line has been very suspect.
Speaker 1: And then on the other side of the ball, I
Speaker 1: know it's Joe Flacco, but it was kind of the
Speaker 1: Garrett Wilson coming out party. I think he probably is
Speaker 1: and can be the best receiver in the draft. Hundred
Speaker 1: and twenty plus yards, two touchdowns, came back after a
Speaker 1: scary hit out of bounds. Looks like everything he's hyped
Speaker 1: up to be. I think again, four and a half points.
Speaker 1: They probably went it out right in my opinion, but
Speaker 1: I'll take the points just to be safe there. Who
Speaker 1: would have thought going in Week three before the season,
Speaker 1: if we were to look at the late week three,
Speaker 1: would we have thought that Jets Bengals might kind of
Speaker 1: be a good game? Come on, Yeah, that's especially with
Speaker 1: Joe Flacco playing not Zach Wilson. Seriously. Yeah, I lost
Speaker 1: their left tackle, their quarterback. But yeah, taking the Jets. Wow, okay,
Speaker 1: you got one left. Walk us through your parlay. Yep.
Speaker 1: So it's been tough tough pickings. I know Week one
Speaker 1: we almost had it. We were just missing in a
Speaker 1: rob touchdown. Last week was a little bit tougher for
Speaker 1: this week Thursday Night football, Steelers at Browns. I got
Speaker 1: five things in this so one chub over eighty five
Speaker 1: rushing yards. He got that really late in the fourth
Speaker 1: quarter last week. I think he goes over again. Friar
Speaker 1: move four plus receptions he have five last week. I
Speaker 1: think he's proving to be the number one reception target
Speaker 1: for Mitch. I think he's the safety play. He had
Speaker 1: touchdown last week. I said five five receptions, So he's
Speaker 1: going to be relied on Brown's money line, so I
Speaker 1: think they win. The five and a half seems like
Speaker 1: a little bit of a shady line there. I think
Speaker 1: a divisional game with a weird spread like that, I
Speaker 1: stick to the money line and be safe. I think
Speaker 1: it's somewhere around minus two and then both running backs
Speaker 1: to score, so Chubb and Agie Harris both score touchdown.
Speaker 1: I think Chub safe. Assumption. Naji in the in the
Speaker 1: red zone, I think is a good one too. So
Speaker 1: you're looking at yeah, we got on that. I like
Speaker 1: that one. Yeah, so plus thirteen hundreds, so I think
Speaker 1: all pretty pretty reasonable things to hit. And you know,
Speaker 1: a ten dollar bet, when's your undred thirty bucks? Hundred
Speaker 1: dollar dred bucks? Not too shabby, and uh, I'm riding high.
Speaker 1: Like I said before, I had a great one game
Speaker 1: parlay for Monday Night football. I had Josh Allen over yards,
Speaker 1: I had Digs over yards, and I actually had Digs
Speaker 1: two plus touchdowns at plus. It was a little bit
Speaker 1: of a late player, else we would have shared it.
Speaker 1: But I'm feeling good after that one while it's full. Well,
Speaker 1: let's not have a habit of you losing the ones
Speaker 1: you give us and then you're hitting the ones wrest
Speaker 1: start taking this on Monday afternoon. Yeah, we're gonna have
Speaker 1: to do emergency conferences for Monday night football and maybe
Speaker 1: do some spaces and and share our Yeah that's what
Speaker 1: Twitter is for. I guess right exactly. Yeah, p any
Speaker 1: promos this week? Yeah, in terms of promotions, I mean,
Speaker 1: it's been a crazy first two weeks. But if you
